Brazilian Steakhouse

Top Tags:

Churrascaria Plataforma Brazilian Steakhouse is a Rodizio style restaurant. Rodizio is a method of serving meat that originated in the south of Brazil in the early 1800's. The concept is to serve a wide variety of different cuts of beef - sirloin, baby beef, top round, skirt steak, short ribs, brisket, rib eye; pork - ham, pork ribs, sausage, pork loin, suckling pig; chicken - chicken legs, chicken hearts; turkey - wrapped in bacon; lamb, fish, etc. in succession, to each diner individually right at their table. A meal typically begins with a trip to the gourmet salad bar, which features a variety of vegetables and composed salads in addition to four hot dishes. We also serve a selection of side dishes at your table. The main course, the highlight of the meal, will start when you flip your coaster-sized "chip" from the red side to the green side, signaling the meat cutters you're ready to be served.

Food was great but service terrible. Waiters forgot to bring drink orders. One meat cutter was rude to my wife. Maybe it was due to place being very busy due to Mothers Dsy.

Lovely ambience, very friendly, attentive service. Buffet tempting and great fish dishes, sides, but remember to save room for all the nonstop, lovely meat that makes this a wonderful bargain if you bring your appetite. Went before Broadway matinee, was perfect. Very Atkins/Keto friendly.

Very good choice of meet (sirloin, filet, lamb, chicken, sausages), full bar with vegetables, cheese, fish and some sushi. You can order food with no limits, all you can eat logic which is common in most of churrascarias. Really noise and more expensive than expected. Tip/gratuity included by the restaurant (that’s not fair): approx $100 / person without wine ! In any case I’ll return again, very satisfied.

La carne è buona, e questo è sicuramente l'aspetto più importante! Anche il bancone buffet offre buone insalate, risotto, sushi, e molto altro. La location non è granché: una grande sala, non molto caratteristica, però comoda e con spazi ampi. Il servizio è stato cortese e preciso, con l'unica pecca che a un certo punto i camerieri hanno smesso di girare tra i tavoli con la carne per circa 15-20 minuti. Forse (penso io) il fatto di non avere moltissimi clienti gli fa tenere un numero inferiore di spiedi che quindi di tanto in tanto tornano a cuocere. Il prezzo è in linea con lo standard di New York, quindi alto, però francamente direi che è assolutamente corretto per un "all-you-can-eat" di questo livello in questa location. NB: per i ragazzi ci sono prezzi ridotti. In definitiva, non una churrascaria memorabile a livello globale, ma assolutamente ok!

Everyone was super kind & lovely! I normally don’t do salad bars but WOW their’s is phenomenal (four warm dishes plus sushi plus regular salad items). I went back three times. I did the $59 restaurant month special. Super value packed for all the fine cuts of meat I got. Make sure to ask for corações & grilled pineapple—worth the extra it will cost. I do miss their caldo verde that isn’t available anymore. Their bean soup (really tutu) is yummy and the pão de queijo at the start of the meal is fresh. Caipirinhas were smooth 💖 From, a Brasilian gal who’s been going to rodízios since she was in the womb

Excellent for group gatherings especially family and/or friends, abundant food servings, very attentive especially in servings and drinks/water. It is very festive and happy in mood so it’s great for birthdays (they can celebrate it for you by bringing you cake with a sparkling candle) and graduation celebrations.

Place is ok. With soda and tip and no dessert comes out to $100 per person. Quality of food is pretty good, think overpriced for what you get. Jazz up the buffet.

Fantastic experience. Dinner was wonderful. We were a big group with a few Brazilians and a bunch of non- Brazilians. I do think the service was extra outstanding because we were with locals but it seemed like other tables had equally good experiences. The salad bar was delicious but don’t fill up- the meat keeps coming. Pao de queso was the best I’ve had. My favorite was the rib steak, the flank steak, and the filet. Others preferred the sausage and a couple made requests for chicken hearts( very acquired taste-and texture). Passion fruit mousse is amazing and the perfect ending. This is a special place and not cheap. Eat early— you’ll need time to walk it off

In NYC celebrating my husbands birthday and he wanted to go to a Brazilian steakhouse. Already familiar with Fogo de Chao, we decided to try Plataforma. We had a 5:00pm reservation and glad we did because the restaurant filled up quickly. Our waiter told us "don't fill up on the salad bar." lol So true. The fish in coconut milk was amazing along with the chicken marsala. Yes, both were on the salad bar! The sushi was really good as well. Then came the experience.. every meat we had was delicious and full of flavor and as long as I had my disk flipped to green, the meat kept coming. My husbands favorite was the beef short rib. One of my favorites was the bacon wrapped filet mignon. We also had the opportunity to choose a few sides. I didn't like the fried banana but my husband enjoyed the fried polenta. I guess it didn't matter because we were in meat heaven! Treat yourselves - it's worth the cost!
